I just looked at it from my perspective as a commenter, and I hate when my comments are deleted. Also, often times the comment has other stuff in it besides the fix, so it's dicey to remove a comment that's half useful. Hey Rob, that’s a fair point.

And writing a news/blog post only helps until it slips out of the top few posts. If you want people to read this before they post a comment then you'll want to put it close to the comment box, otherwise it will be all but forgotten in two weeks when it's off the front-page.

The contact link requires scrolling back up to and opening in a new window (so we can continue to see the error we want to report on screen). When we get to the contact page, we discover that we need to open our email client and start a new email as there's isn't a mailto: link to enable us to automatically launch into a new email window. Finally we have to unmangle your email address after copy/pasting it into the To: field. It's easier to type directly into the form on the page where the typo is :) You can always delete the comment once fixed. Regards, Rob...
